Suppose all your data is in a list called ``yourdata``, and yorudata
is a list of dicts:
return [[d.get('FreezeTime'), d.get('Irrad_avg')] for d in yourdata]
You can use either the get method as I did, or the subscript notation:
return [[d['FreezeTime'], d['Irrad_avg']] for d in yourdata]
Difference is that get will assign ``None`` if a key doesn't exist,
while subscript notation will raise an exception. It depends on how
certain you can be about existence of the keys.
You can read more about list comprehensions here:
